  1. Would rather keep austin Longterm as the dh bench scorer 6th man and move on from AD/Bron.

    This kid is clutch and on a fantastic contract. There is no trade we can make thats going to make us better than the best teams in the league right now.

  2. Doesn’t matter, because if it gets done it won’t be Austin. We don’t need to worry about Reaves, because he’s not on the block, whether fans like that or not.

  3. Apollo611

    It won’t. Reaves should only get moved if it includes more players like Bogi or Capella. That’s the only reason Murray makes sense because his contract is cheaper than LaVine’s it allows us to get more in return or go out and make another deal for someone like DFS

    Here’s where I’m stuck: If the rumours are true that Atlanta would spice up their package beyond just Murray in exchange for Austin, then certainly there’s a deal there that doesn’t involve Austin, right? I think when the deadline approaches and urgency rises, we may see this deal become feasible without Austin.

    Keep AR we’re 9th seed play in. Go with Murray we’re 7th seed play in. It moves the needle but not enough to be a serious contender

  6. Tall_Succotash

    Has klutch accepted it yet? Sounds like they have

  7. TorontoRaptors34

    It don’t DJM would be nice next to Reaves as a backccourt but thats as far as I’d entertain. 

  8. CarlosE2006

    As long as pockets is the coach we could trade AR for prime Jordan and he would still play Cam for most of the game and refuse to call timeouts when the opposing team goes on a big run.

  9. Unusual_Squirrel9335

    couldn’t care less about any of this crap. just fire pockets

  10. The needle likely isn’t getting moved in one swoop. But D’lo or Reaves for Murray does give a considerable upgrade. Murray is 2x the player either of them are.

  11. GoalPublic3579

    Nah I wouldn’t do it because we ain’t winning shit with this coach so what’s the point?

  12. Early-Candidate5492

    Like I said yesterday if you’re trading reaves look for something better than Dejounte.

    I’ll do Lavine and Caruso.

    For a Dlo Austin trade.

  13. gustavosgack

    Gonna regret trading him then be mad when lakers are still ass because ham is coach

  14. Do they know about our up and coming young rookie all star Hood- Schifino?

  15. D’lo and Reaves will never ever work together imo. Guards will feast on them.

    If DJM can go back to the defender that he was then I think it would be a fine deal.

    The only issue is DJM’s upcoming contract will be pretty big whereas Reaves is on a good deal.

  16. Kobe_stan_

    How’s Dejounte in the playoffs? Cause Reaves is clutch as fuck

  17. PigsOnTheWings

    Austin is misplaced in this team. He’s a 6th man, closer, a la ginobili. He is NOT a starter.

  18. That fact that this is a consideration is a fucking joke

  19. Prize_Salamander8035

    I’m glad 99% of this sub understands that nothing will change as long as Ham sandwich is the head coach of this team.

  20. Yommination

    If they won’t fire Hamas then make 0 trades ride it out with buyout signings. Truly punt the season and not waste assets

  21. atierney14

    It won’t. They need two way players, and Reaves ironically, is one of the few good ones.

  22. Fantastic-Arachnid61

    If its only murray then it doesn’t. If we can get a three team trade and get other role players in return then yes
